Nucleation pathway of calcium sulfate hemihydrate (bassanite) from solution: implications for calcium sulfates on Mars
Tomasz M. Stawski, Rogier Besselink, Konstantinos Chatzipanagisad +3
CaSO4 minerals (i.e. gypsum, anhydrite and bassanite) are widespread in natural and industrial environments. During the last several years, a number of studies have revealed that n…
Mechanism of saponite crystallization from a rapidly formed amorphous intermediate
Rogier Besselink, Tomasz M. Stawski, Helen M. Freeman +3
Although clays are crucial mineral phases in Earth's weathering engine, it is unclear how they form in surface environments under (near-)ambient pressures and temperature. Most syn…
The structure of CaSO4 nanorods -- the precursor of gypsum
Tomasz M. Stawski, Alexander E. S. Van Driessche, Rogier Besselink +4
Understanding the gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) formation pathway from aqueous solution has been the subject of intensive research in the past years. This interest stems from the fact that g…
Particle-mediated nucleation pathways are imprinted in the internal structure of calcium sulfate single crystals
Tomasz M. Stawski, Helen M. Freeman, Alexander E. S. Van Driessche +4
Calcium sulfate minerals are found under the form of three crystalline phases: gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O), bassanite (CaSO4.0.5H2O), and anhydrite (CaSO4). Due to its relevance in natural…
Mechanism of silica-lysozyme composite formation unravelled by in situ fast SAXS
Tomasz M. Stawski, Daniela van den Heuvel, Rogier Besselink +2
A quantitative understanding of aggregation mechanisms leading to the formation of inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) and protein composites in aqueous media is of paramount interest fo…
Formation of calcium sulfate through the aggregation of sub-3 nm anhydrous primary species
Tomasz M. Stawski, Alexander E. S. van Driessche, Mercedes Ossorio +2
The formation of crystalline calcium sulfate (CaSO4*xH2O) polymorphs from aqueous solutions is assumed to occur via a single-step process following the classical nucleation paradig…
